Summary

"Joanna Scott, the critically acclaimed author of ten novels and two collections, turns back to the craft of the short story. Ranging across history from the distant past to the future, Scott tours the many forms our stories can take, from cave wall paintings to radio banter to digitized archives, and the far-reaching consequences of our communications."--Publisher description.
